Sources & Fact-Checking Policy
How Bullion Compass handles primary sources, company claims, unstable facts and corrections.
Retirement and company-specific information can become stale. We separate durable explanations from unstable facts such as contribution limits, minimum purchases, company fees, promotions, ratings and product availability.
Primary-source preference
We favor IRS and regulatory material for retirement-account mechanics and first-party company material for company-specific policies. When a source states a merchant claim, we identify it as such rather than turning it into an independent guarantee.
Corrections
When a material error is identified, we aim to correct the article and re-check other pages that may repeat the same fact.
